Yip, you are right, I was looking here locally, but that was after trying
lots of camcontrol commands.

Ok, but why does geom pick it up correctly when booting with the disk
plugged in? Does geom mabe get called before the disk is ready? If
that "Opened disk ..." message is from geom, the order of things looks
like geom gets called just after the "Unretryable error".
